He discusses the paradox of choice in the \"Age of Tinder,\" why a canoe is the best place to test your long-term compatibility, and other research-based insights and advice for modern dating and relationships.\n\nDan Ariely has been fascinated by irrationality in human endeavors such as dating ever since he overcame severe injuries sustained in an explosion.
